01 / 20Most first-time investors learn the market by losing money to it.
- 01
Tuition paid in losses
A new investor in Nepal or India funds a real account and clicks buy before understanding a stop-loss. The market charges for every lesson.
- 02
Tools built for someone else
Practice apps that exist are English-only, built around US markets, and treat learning as a funnel into a brokerage.
- 03
Beginners quit
Many conclude trading is gambling and walk away — and the next cohort of first-timers repeats the same mistakes.

Millions of new investors. Nowhere to practise.
Online IPO applications brought a wave of first-time investors in Nepal; India's base is far larger. Practice tools in Nepali and Hindi, on NEPSE and NSE, barely exist.
We use no market-size projections. Outside figures are cited; everything else in this deck is our own live data.
Learn it. Practise it. Prove it.
One loop, in Nepali, Hindi and English: a lesson, a practice trade on simulated prices, then a league to see if it stuck.

Every day, measured.
Day by day in Nepal time, with a 7-day average to smooth the weekly rhythm. Today’s bar is still filling. Hover or tap a chart for exact values.
Biggest sign-up day so far: 28 Sept (816). Busiest trading day: 28 Sept (3,401 trades).

Month on month, measured honestly.
Sign-ups and practice trades per calendar month. The current month is compared on daily pace, not as a part-month total.
Oct so far (13 days, today still running) — daily average vs September's daily average. Comparing a part-month total with a full month would mislead.
Calendar months, UTC. Dashed bar = month in progress.
08 / 20People come back.
Two honest measures: members who did something real recently (a trade, a lesson, a quiz or the daily call), and day-1 / day-7 return of new sign-ups. Cohorts count only members who joined after the daily-active log began, and only complete days.

Staff and the official Lumi account excluded. A streak day needs a trade, lesson, quiz or daily call — not just an app open.

Leagues that make practice a habit.
Every member who trades, learns or makes the daily call earns league points. Groups of 30; the top climb from Fox to Lion each week.
Cup: 660 on the board this month, 19 days left. Prizes are cosmetic — no cash.
14 / 20In their own words.
“This app is great for learning about the stock market, especially for understanding short selling in Nepal risk-free. It runs very smoothly. However, the indicators need improvement, which will hopefully be fixed in future updates.”
“Best paper trading and learning app, I loved the StockYatra and the idea that really helpful for nepse trader and also will be much helpful in future.”
Ratings per store, exactly as each store reports them. Quotes are store reviews only; any review that reuses wording from the app's review-suggestion feature is excluded. The app thanks members who rate it with 20,000 practice coins (no cash value).

105 user-facing changes since 24 Jul, each listed on stockyatra.com/changelog. One small team ships the engine, both apps, the web terminal, the site and the video pipeline.
Counted from the public changelog, Nepal time. Internal tools, fixes and infrastructure are not listed there, so this undercounts.
